Processing Visual Information
It is estimated that the human brain contains 100 billion (1011) neurons averaging 1000 synapses on each; that is, some 1014 connections. How to unravel the workings of such a complex system?

Processing the mRNA Transcript
In eukaryotic cells, the newly-formed mRNA transcript (also called heterogenous nuclear RNA or hnRNA) must be further modified before it can be used.

Processing raw data to produce finished sequence continues to be a major bottleneck in the sequencing process. The most productive sequencing centers each generated about 20 to 25 Mb of finished sequence last year, for a total of about 120 Mb.

Food processing
Food can be made safer and more palatable through processing. Food processing therefore has a valuable role in contributing to good nutrition. However, some nutritionists advise caution.

RNA processing
Using these programs to find ORFs in bacterial genomes is relatively easy. Here, the DNA sequence matches the mRNA. The situation is more complicated for eukaryotic genes, which often contain one or more noncoding regions (introns).
